Movie Review: Talihina Sky

Talihina Sky: The Story of Kings Of Leon does exactly what it says on the tin. The rock doc tells KOL's rise to fame and their unique childhood from the band themselves. As a big fan of the band, I loved the honesty they put forward throughout.

But you don't have to be a massive fan of the band to appreciate the movie. Unlike other documentaries of musicians, this isn't filled with them playing a bunch of their songs. It's just a very honest insight into their lives.

The movie was directed and produced by Stephen Mitchell and Casey McGrath, both good friends with the band. In fact Casey has directed some of their music videos.

The footage in the movie has been taken by people close to the band and the band themselves as well as old family videos. It wasn't just some stranger or crew following them around with a camera. This as well helps to set it apart from other documentaries.

Talihina Sky is in stores now.
